Natural gas, coal, and oil are non-renewable sources of energy. Our generating portfolio includes power stations fueled by these resources. Advanced technologies, training, and a dedicated workforce are the keys to being a pacesetter in this type of generation.
Our power stations use a variety of techniques to reduce harmful emissions, including electrostatic precipitators, wet scrubbers and selective catalytic reduction technology.
